Indeed, welcome!

Perhaps if you introduce yourself over on the proper forum (the one called "Introduce Yourself"), we can help you to unload that useless hunk o' metal (aka, the Road King) that now just forlornly takes up space in your garage!

64 in March Started riding when I was 13. Red and gray 305 Super Hawk. Man! I really thought I was a stud. Believe it or not, there were other motorcycles at the junior high school I attended from 7th to 9th grade. There were two 305's, a 250 Scrambler, a 650 Tiger, a red and gray 160 Hawk, a 250? Allstate oil burner, and a handful of nifty thrifty Honda 50s. None of us had any sort of drivers license. My how times have changed.

BTW-that 2cycle Allstate was the loudest motorcycle I have ever heard with the baffles removed. Plus it wasn't at all a pretty sound. Not the bumble bee in a beer can sound at all. More like cannons being shot off in an irregular pattern. I had forgotten about that bike. Thanks for the post and stirring old memories.

How cool was the kid on the 650 Tiger.

Remember when I was a real young fella .. a bloke on a 650 Bonneville used to cart out a chick in my street. It had a Rex Windsor lace paint job, chromed everything and upswept trumpet mufflers. He'd come out the house and find three or four of us kids sitting in the gutter beside his bike. He was our Fonz .. hahahaha

Definitely cooler than me. I rode to H.S. on one of these:

Of course, I usually drove this exact car, so I wasn't a total dweeb:
